Additive Manufacturing
Implemented
2D thermal finite element model (2d-heat-ded on GitLab) of directed energy deposition additive manufacturing process (
animations) in Python using FEniCS framework. The model matched pyrometer measurement of melt pool length and was presented at
FEniCS'19 conference and published in the
Journal of Manufacturing Processes.

Numerical modeling of EM field
Implemented open-source
Yagi and log-periodic antenna simulation package which can be downloaded from
https://github.com/bohumir/yagi-logper.
Yagi-logper reads a Yagi or Logper antenna from it's own-simple-input-format file or from a minimal-featured NEC2-formatted file. It then calculates the currents along the dipoles and the antennas' radiation pattern. For a use with GUI, Yagi-logper can be executed from
Antennavis software package, where it acts as a replacement for
nec2. Yagi-logper does not offer all features of NEC2, however, it is more accurate in a limited domain of symmetric dipole arrays, such as Yagi and Logper antennas, in a free space (no ground). In
Antennavis GUI, the user can adjust locations and dimensions of the dipoles after reading the initial configuration from the NEC2-formatted input file, execute
yagi-logper (which acts as
nec2) substitute, and visualize the antenna radiation pattern in 3D.
